This has nothing to do with the original point of this thread, which I'll repeat is that Eva Bartlett cannot be trusted as a source of credible information:
> Bartlett describes herself as an "independent writer and rights activist."[3] She writes commentary pieces for RT's website.Critics contend that her advocacy amounts to participation in a disinformation campaign whereby the aim is to lessen the responsibility of the Assad regime for the acts of indiscriminate killing during the war.
> In late 2016, Bartlett gained controversy over a video that went viral, in which said that Syrians "overwhelmingly support" Bashar al-Assad, as evidenced by the results of the 2014 election.[13][14] The election was seen as illegitimate by a number of countries and international organizations,[15][16][17] while Russia has endorsed Assad's mandate. Further, she has characterized the White Helmets as being part of a Western propaganda campaign, alleging that rescues by that organization are hoaxes whereby they "recycle" the same children in footage of staged rescues,[13][14][18] and that "no one in eastern Aleppo has heard of [the White Helmets]".[13] In the same video, Bartlett falsely claimed that the al-Quds Hospital bombing in April 2016, where 55 died, never occurred, saying it was rebel propaganda.[4][19] Bartlett's claims were amplified by Russian-controlled outlets such as RT, Sputnik News and In The Now.[20][13] The claims were found to be false by Channel 4 News and Snopes.[1][3][4][5] The broader "same girl" internet meme has been categorized as a derivation of the "crisis actor" conspiracy theories
